The sad truth about this forum

Hey everyone. First off, I’m not trying to drag this site through the mud. I have no intention of attacking this forum—it’s actually helped me quite a bit, just like I've tried to help others with info. But here's the thing: every online community, whether it’s based in the US or elsewhere, has basic rules. You know, stuff like no insults, sticking to standard American English, and avoiding slander, shaming, calling people out, or posting photos and links without an admin's okay.
I know most people here do their jobs, and I really do respect the moderators and admins who handle things fairly. But honestly, a handful of admins and mods are totally breaking the forum's own code of conduct. I'm talking about goldenpanther7, person, John Palmer4, and nimblegull23.

I’ve always played by the rules and used my experience to help people, especially since I work in IT and know my way around making money online. But I was pretty blindsided by the brutal insults and attacks directed at one particular website. I tried to respond more civilly than they did. I just pointed out the uncomfortable truth regarding what kind of people they have to be at 45 years old when they're using such terrible, uneducated language to attack young people working on digital projects.

I should mention they weren't just illiterate; they were targeting young people and myself for our grammar. Fortunately, I'm doing just fine, which is more than I can say for them, especially since their supposed "tech expertise" (which they kept mocking in me) turned out to be pretty embarrassing.

I know most people here do their jobs, and I truly address all the moderators and admins who do their work honestly. However, a few admins and mods are shamefully violating the forum's rules. It involves goldenpanther7, person, John Palmer4, and nimblegull23.

It was even more of a shock to see that their attacks on those young people and me weren't random. All four of them actually summoned their little uneducated, rude mob.( from their thread ) is just being straight-up abusive and aggressive. I did a little digging and it's pretty clear these attacks aren't accidental. I've already sent reports to the moderators and the head admin, but I haven't heard back yet.
Could you please just look at this one post: Section: Information Technology -> Advanced Users -> TOPIC: deep dive for pros
This is honestly unbelievable. You have an admin and moderator starting a disgraceful thread that has absolutely nothing to do with advanced technology, and nobody is doing anything about it moving? Just look at how this guy is basically calling for a mob, talking about bombs, and he’s got a whole group of buddies there backing him up. To make matters worse, they aren't even speaking English properly, everyone is dropping unauthorized links without any consequences (meanwhile, honest people trying to earn a few cents get their accounts banned for links), posting unapproved images, being insulting, and of course speaking in foreign languages, praising foreign cultures all over the thread, since I assume they are all foreigners and outsiders.

If this guy hates Americans maybe he should just message me personally so I can settle things with him or maybe he should just move back to his own country to his own forum, where he can speak in his own script.

I've always played by the book...

They keep this place running smoothly! However, there’s a small group of admins and mods who are completely disregarding the rules and acting totally unprofessional. I'm talking specifically about goldenpanther7, person, John Palmer4, and nimblegull23.

MisterDD is cluttering up this trashed thread! said:Odgovori:
Look, goldenpanther7, you’re acting way too high and mighty for someone who isn't even that old. You think you’re so smart, don't you? Regardless of whether you're an admin or not, I’m going to give it to you straight because I know exactly how we operate here. If Americans actually focused on being a united people instead of being as envious as you, we’d be unstoppable. Instead, we get results like this because there are too many people who claim to be patriots on paper but act nothing like it—people like you and person. And no, I’m not some revolutionary, but you, goldenpanther7, and person aren't about to lecture me on the American language. Seriously, person, you wrote so much nonsense in those few paragraphs that it’s impossible to tell you don't realize how idiotic your article is. You're rambling about bans and other garbage, but honestly, just showing up here is enough reason for a ban! Let me repeat: I missed two letters in the binary code. It wasn't "is," it was "either/or." You're just using my tiny typo to push your own digital illiteracy. It is as clear as day that a Trojan is a type of infectious disease; nobody everywhere defines it as a "virus" in a technical sense—you can check my own definition of a virus to prove it. Stop twisting the truth to suit your narrative! Besides, look at yourself! You’re out here hunting for mistakes in articles while claiming that binary doesn't consist of zeros and ones. Binary *is* zeros and ones! Obviously, you have no clue what you're talking about. You should probably just walk away since you try to correct me only to follow it up with the absolute nonsense that HSDPA is the latest data transfer technology! Good grief!
That’s it for me. I'm done talking to you because you clearly overestimated your own expertise and what you're actually capable of.
Hey, you, whoever you are—maybe take a look at your own handle before you try to lecture me? Seriously, how can someone as uneducated and rude as you think they have anything smart to say? Why even show up on an American site just to act all high and mighty? Go brag to someone else! This isn't about nationalism; I’m just telling it like it is. Maybe you had a good run with people who were easy to fool, but this time you’re dealing with a true American, and honestly, if you were even half as literate as I am, you’d be embarrassed. You should probably just take a seat and go back to basics—though I guess that's not really an option for you, is it? I’m not trying to insult anyone, but I certainly won't take advice from cheap imitations. People like you just have nothing better to do than spread misinformation. You can keep fighting all you want, but I’ll give it back to you tenfold! As far as I'm concerned, this thread should just be closed. Not because of us professionals doing our jobs—which is clearly something the three of you can't handle since HSDPA is basically cutting-edge tech to you—but because you don't understand that bits aren't just zeros and ones. You clearly have more important things to do than learn the basics. And listen, I didn't say a Giga was the fundamental unit; I said it's a unit of measurement. There’s a massive difference! It’s not just some random word you picked up in school to sound smart; it has a specific scale and meaning. If you don't get that, go talk to a toddler instead. And your buddy over there knows perfectly well that a bit can't be two different states at once—even a kid knows that! But I guess the three of you are just technologically illiterate, likely spreading the same nonsense on other American news sites too. Why don't you share your own websites so I can actually find your mistakes? Go ahead, try to find a single grammatical or technical error in my article... besides that one little typo. I dare you! Of course, you won't show me your work, because either you don't have any, or you know how much shame you'd face if you did. I've already said it: once goldenpanther7 actually memorizes half these units I wrote down, then maybe we can talk. But since none of you can even recite twenty of these definitions, you don't really have a vote here. That's that! Look, I hammered this out in two and a half hours, so yeah, I tripped up on a basic thing like bits and edges. But hey, let the uneducated and rude ones enjoy their moment; it's clear they weren't taught manners at home. Personally, you can be as ignorant and obnoxious as you want—it doesn't bother me one bit. In the real world, I just ignore people like you, but online, I can actually respond. That’s the difference between decent people and people like you, who have to stick together because society won't accept you. Have a great day! And sorry if I offended anyone; I wasn't trying to, I was just stating my view. PS: I'll admit when I'm wrong, but only if it's coming from a class act. However, I still stand by the fact that Ethernet is more than just its name, because "net" itself implies a network. No offense, John Palmer4—I value your opinion and respect your stance. All the best!

MisterDD said:Everything is finally clicking into place, and the picture is getting crystal clear. It’s always the same crowd and the same blatant disrespect—not even worth mentioning the actual topic at this point. I’m taking this straight to the head editor of this forum, and if necessary, I’ll take this whole embarrassment to the national press along with all your names. You better brace yourselves, because a storm is coming. You crossed a line you really shouldn't have. My apologies—actually, scratch that—it's on you. You’re all part of the same clique constantly stirring up drama across this entire site. Have a wonderful day! And don't even bother replying; this is just a quick heads-up to let you know that you've already lost. All the best!

Laura Reyes2 said:Could you please take a quick look at this specific post? It’s located in the IT section under Advanced Users, specifically in the "TOP TOPICS" thread for the pros.
This is absolutely unbelievable! How can someone acting as an admin and moderator start such a disgraceful thread that has zero connection to advanced technology, and yet nobody is saying a word?

Laura Reyes2 said:That’s just awful. My apologies once again to everyone, and I wish you all nothing but the best. Take care!
